Physical and rehabilitation medicine is an independent branch of medicine that treats both acute and chronic pain conditions related to the locomotor system. It mainly concerns skeletal and muscle diseases, or injuries that cause movement disorders and consequently hinder the function of a certain part of the body. The goal of our work is expert treatment of patients in order to achieve functional improvement, better quality of life, and independence in performing life activities.
A physiatry specialist conducts the rehabilitation programme for patients who undergo rehabilitation with balneotherapy, advises patients who decide on healthcare programmes or the use of individual therapies, and performs specialist examinations on patients, as well as self-paid specialist examinations in the field of physical and rehabilitation medicine.
